Lost Shadows, [AND Museum] is composed of a selection of photographs from the found image archive of the AND Postcard Company. In the late 1970s and 80s, the company dispatched individual photographers around Turkey in order to make postcards for national distribution. The work of these photographers, unearthed by Avşar in 2010, ranges from the overtly staged to more ambiguous or even mundane compositions, whose political undertones may not instantly be read today: an organized mass-athletics, public processions, national monuments, the unexpected presence of a soldier, and the presence of an unfitting vehicle in an otherwise scenic landscape. Once censored and never distributed, these images evidence the tensions in the governmental oppression following the 1980 military coup in Turkey. By recontextualizing this history and distributing the postcards to new audiences, Avşar’s Lost Shadows, [AND Museum] resonates with the ways in which—visibly or invisibly—civic space is contested today.
Vahap Avşar received an MFA in painting from Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey (1991) and a BA in Painting from Dokuz Eylül University, Izmir, Turkey (1989); and completed coursework for a Ph.D and was on the faculty at Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey (1989-1995). His work has been exhibited in solo and group shows at venues including SALT, Istanbul (2015), Whitechapel Gallery, London (2015), Pinacoteca, Bologna (2015), Istanbul Modern, Istanbul (2015), Rampa, Istanbul (2013, 2010), TANAS, Berlin (2011 & 2012), ARTER, Istanbul (2010), 5th International Istanbul Biennial, (1997), Ankara Central Train Station (1995), 5th Havana Biennial (1994), W139, Amsterdam (1993), Akaretler 50, Istanbul (1993) and German Cultural Centre, Izmir (1986).
